Good morning folks
I am wondering if anyone has experience or relevant information about using brand name full spectrum grow lights as aquarium lighting?
Something like this light for example Spider farmer SF2000.
The spectrum doesnt look that bad to my untrained eyes, and it seems the overall light given is a (warm?) white type of light?
Does anyone know how plant color rendition is under this type of light?
Obviously the light will be extremely suited to growing plants, otherwise they would not be able to sell any of them.
We are definitely in the "laser photon torpedo" territory based on those PAR numbers, so being able to mount the light far away enough from the tank, and preferably being able to dim it down seems important for our usage.
The price is quite good compared to aquarium lights as well.
How realistic (close to sunlight) does the plant look while it is growing under lights like these?
Looking forward to any answers, lights are an area I have yet to go very deeply into, but I am interested to learn more
